That is pretty close, but not too much closer than mine and I have been fine.

As far as the wastegate. With my Tial, the side nipple is for just running the wastegate spring and the top nipple is for running a boost controller.

They both use vacuum to work, yes. If you don't have a boost controller you don't hook up anything to the top one, just the side one. If you have a boost controller you use both....this is on the Tial.

why is that? I thought that manual boost controllers intercepted the vacuum signal to the wastegate.
